File (5.09) may no longer be available at the listed
location. The site administrators of the master download
location occasionally remove older versions when new ones

Note

The Linux kernel is updated relatively often, many times
due to discoveries of security vulnerabilities. The latest
available 3.0.x kernel version should be used, unless the
errata page says otherwise.

For users with limited speed or expensive bandwidth who
wish to update the Linux kernel, a baseline version of the
package and patches can be downloaded separately. This may
save some time or cost for a subsequent patch level upgrade
within a minor release.
